my prayer
may our hearts always be free
from darkness and depression
from fear and fatigue
may our hearts
glide on the drafts like an eagle
sparkle with the sun and stars
may they sprinkle
love and laughter
hope and healing
may they provide all we need
shelter clothing and feed
respect acceptance inclusion
may they embrace
the lost and lonely
and every living being
dear hearts, totally appreciate you all respecting my retreat space, what a blessing!
now have the right conditions to do x 4 each year …

Not finished yet…the furniture movers are coming next week. The new place is clean and a lot of the boxes that were in storage are unpacked. My daughters helped me move some small things, but I still have stuff to pack as well. Almost there!
